For teens who are having a tough time at home, drugs can seem like a welcome escape from their problems. But that escape often spirals into dependency, and before they know it, they end up feeling totally lost. In today's show, Mark chats with two teens who started using drugs at a very young age. Drew opens up about how peer pressure and family turmoil pushed him towards substance abuse, beginning as early as seventh grade. He shares candidly about arguments with his parents and the turning points that led to his time at Heartlight. Tune in!
